Shopify direct checkout link FAQ
What is a Shopify cart permalink?
It's a URL in the form /cart/VARIANT_ID:QUANTITY that adds products to the cart. Shopify sends the customer to checkout by default, and ?discount=CODE applies a discount code to the order.
Where do I find the variant ID?
In your Shopify admin open Products → your product → click the variant. The URL ends in /variants/ followed by the numeric ID. A product page URL with ?variant=ID also contains it.
Why not just link to the product page?
Every extra click loses buyers. A cart permalink removes the product page and add-to-cart steps, which helps on impulse buys and limited-time offers.
Does the discount code need to already exist?
Yes, create it first in Shopify under Discounts. The link only passes the code; the customer sees it applied at checkout if it is valid for the items.
